The 28th Annual Conference of the Chartered Institute of Stockbrokers will hold Thursday 07, and Friday 08, November 2024 at Grace Hall Jogor Center Ibadan, Oyo State.

The theme of the Conference is:

Capital Market As A Catalyst For A $1.0 Trillion Economy

Conversations around a trillion-dollar Nigerian economy will require a deep analysis of how the capital market works and linking it to various key segments of the economy, to establish the nexus and specific ways through which the capital market can serve as catalyst for realising the dream. The topic will entail an in-depth analysis of the Nigerian economy, showing where we are, and what we need to do relative to other countries that are advancing in terms of growth and development.

Achieving a trillion-dollar Nigerian economy necessitates a comprehensive exploration of the capital market's role as a powerful engine of growth. The discussion will delve into the intricate workings of the capital market, identifying key sectors where its influence can be most impactful. By linking the capital market to vital segments of the economy—such as infrastructure, technology, manufacturing, and agriculture—we will establish clear pathways through which it can drive sustainable economic expansion.

The theme was deliberately chosen to serve as the Chartered Institute of Stockbrokers’ contribution to support the Federal Government of Nigeria in realizing one of its cardinal objectives, which is growing the GDP of Nigeria to $1trn as quickly as possible. The conversation will involve a critical assessment of Nigeria’s current economic landscape, benchmarking against global peers to highlight specific reforms, innovations, and strategic investments needed to transition from potential to realized growth. The discussion aims to provide actionable insights and a roadmap for leveraging the capital market to transform Nigeria into a $1.0 trillion economy.
